As we enter into the story of the flood and the tower of Babel in Genesis, we continue to see how wicked and rebellious humanity is. Despite this terrible affront to God’s character and rule, we also continue to see God’s grace displayed as He saves Noah and his family and then furthers His plan to display His glory among the nations when He confuses their languages and scatters the families of the earth. The Lord is the King of the earth. He rules and destroys His enemies. No plans against Him prosper. His plan—to make a people for Himself, to establish His kingdom, and to thus display His glory—begins to take shape through the descendants of Noah, who become the nations of the world.
We continue to pray that our study of Genesis will shape all of us in our love for God, our worship of God, and our view of the world. May we grow together as His followers more and more into the image of Christ!
